Breakdown | Webinar 2

We kept the ads. We rebuilt the back end.

Webinar 1 for INSPIRATE ended with 211 registered, 93 live and 12 booked calls. This is everything between the ad and a booked call that we rebuilt for webinar 2.

In webinar 1, the ads and the live session did their job. The leak was after the webinar: warm parents who never made it onto a consult call. So for webinar 2 we kept the ad engine and rebuilt the back end. It's static HTML on Vercel.

The six steps

  1. Opt-in page with a countdown that's always on.
  2. A confirmation page that asks parents to send their teen's activity list. Homework gets people to show up.
  3. Reminder ads for "tomorrow" and "tonight", plus $50 of show-up ads on the day.
  4. A replay page for people who missed it, which tracks watch depth at 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100%.
  5. A Plan Call page: a 4-question application, then the calendar.
  6. A bonus that hides itself 48 hours after the webinar.

Two small things that save a lot of pain

Fix 1

The pixel only fires on the real domain, so previews never pollute the data.

Fix 2

The deadline lives in code, so nobody edits the page at midnight.

What we're measuring

Our guarantee is built on consults held, so that's the number webinar 2 gets judged on. Its numbers go up next to webinar 1's when it's done.
